Jordan Henderson to miss rest of World Cup after wrist surgery
England’s midfield stalwart Jordan Henderson slipped while scaling the advertising hoardings following the 3-2 victory against Mexico, resulting in a wrist fracture. Medical examinations confirmed the break and recommended immediate surgery.
The operation will sideline Henderson for the remainder of the tournament, leaving England without his experience in midfield. Head coach Gareth Southgate acknowledged the loss but expressed confidence in the squad’s depth.
